Tutu Tuesday 20585

Tutu Tuesday in Coolamon, New South Wales #tututuesday G'day, darlings! It's your fave fashionista ballerina back with another fabulous Tutu Tuesday post! This time, I'm taking you on a tutu journey right here in beautiful Coolamon, New South Wales, a place that may not spring to mind when you think ballet, but trust me, it's got some surprises up its tutu sleeve! Let's get down to it - today, I'm all about embracing the versatility of the tutu. No, we're not just talking about that classic, puffy, fairytale-worthy number (although, they're still iconic, right?). We're thinking modern, we're thinking fun, we're thinking 'I'm gonna twirl in this outfit wherever I go!' Coolamon, while not a hub of ballet like Sydney or Melbourne, has a hidden gem - the Coolamon Performing Arts Centre. I had a chance to meet with the incredible team there, who told me they're dedicated to nurturing young talent in all areas of performing arts, including, you guessed it, ballet! There's a beautiful dance studio with mirrors reflecting the most stunning tutus - and it just got me thinking: maybe this little town is on its way to becoming the tutu capital of NSW! Okay, maybe not quite yet, but we can dream, right? Anyway, enough about me, let's chat about those tutu styles! My Tutu Inspirations in Coolamon * **The Classic Romantic Tutu:** Oh, those romantic, billowy layers. The ones that made us believe in fairytales as little girls. We still love them now, don't we? They're perfect for adding a touch of drama to a formal event, even if it's just dinner with your besties! Imagine, rocking this classic, sweeping tulle as you twirl out the door to grab that last pizza slice, iconic, right?! * **The Modern Asymmetric Tutu:** It's sleek, it's daring, and it says "I'm not afraid to be bold!" This one isn't afraid to break away from the norm with a layered skirt that cuts short at the side, leaving some skin exposed. Think street style meets dance. So chic and modern. I'm envisioning myself wearing this one to a chic Coolamon brunch, coffee in hand, twirling as I head into the cafe! * **The Statement Tutu Skirt:** I know, I know, skirts can be tricky when you're a ballet dancer - imagine having to do a grand jeté! But, these tutu-inspired skirts, they just give you that extra oomph you need for a special occasion. Maybe pair them with a simple top and sleek sneakers or sandals. Totally a Coolamon day look, comfy and stylish. Where to Find Your Tutu Dreams Ok, you're probably wondering, "where can I find these fabulous tutus in Coolamon?" I'm glad you asked, lovelies! I have two magical places you need to check out! * **Coolamon Sew & Go:** These are the kings and queens of local creativity! Not only do they make the most incredible tutus for the local dance group, but they also offer custom alterations and dressmaking! You can have them whip up anything from a classic romantic to a statement skirt that reflects your personal style. They're experts at making your tutu dreams a reality. * **The Corner Emporium:** Don't underestimate the power of second-hand shopping! The Corner Emporium has vintage and recycled treasures galore, and believe me, I have a feeling you'll find your next "to-die-for" tutu hidden among the racks there. You just have to dig a little! Get Ready to Twirl Don't be afraid to make your own tutu statement! If Coolamon can get its twirl on, so can you! Let me know what you think!
